Abstract:
A method, system, and/or computer program product synchronizes Service Level Monitoring (SLM) statuses of a plurality of appliances in a cluster. A token, which comprises a global SLM data and loading distribution information, is received at a first appliance. The global SLM data and loading distribution information of the token is retrieved from the token. The token is updated with local statistics for the first appliance. The updated token is then passed to a next appliance.
